I saw my surgeon last Friday. I had a bunch of questions for him and so I got a lot of my questions answered. One of my questions was, what is more important, staying below a certain number of calories or getting more protein? He said more protein. I'm upping my protein by 20 grams a day. So my new daily protein goal is 80 grams. I'm hoping this will help me lose a bit faster. I have been very slow. But my doctor also assured me I'm doing ok. I'm on the lower end of the scale for how much I've lost but that slower is better anyway.
I bought some Proti products from my doctors office. They are so good. You just can't find stuff like it on the shelves of your local grocery store. I especially like the protein water mix. The Peach Mango is especially good. It's like Crystal Light but with 15 grams of protein. That is what is really helping me to get my 80 grams in.
